Spring Cleaning.

Manda requested I start posting again. She's cute when she's bossy and I like to please her, so here is my one post before I abandon the blog again until she notices.

It's been roughly 2.5 years since I last posted. I'm not even going to try and summarize that amount of life.

My chosen topic: I get teased a lot for  "being build like a dude". It's never offensive and always funny because of the joke's origin.

A few years back I was buying my first real-legit-expensive mountain bike. I was pretty excited about this whole bicycle thing. I'd researched different brands and frame geometries. Since at the time, I was really convinced I was a girl, I asked about women specific designs at my local bike shop.

Me: "Do you guys carry WSD bikes?"

The sales guy Rob pauses and looks at me.

Rob: "Are you looking for you?"

Me: "Yes."

He proceeds to size me up.

Rob: "Well, you're kind of built like a guy, so I wouldn't recommend them for you."

Me: "...."

Rob: "...."

Me: "Was that a line backer in a dress comment?" (I'm laughing)

Rob: "No! It's just you have a long torso and the seat-to-handle-bar ratio is shorter on WSD bikes..."

Of course, I told my brother this story and he hasn't let it go since. Over the years, the joke has morphed into the fact that I have "broad shoulders" for a girl. My boss even brings it up on conference calls. "Just give the task to Lindsay. She's got broad shoulders, she can handle the additional burden."

See you in a few years!

Peace Out.
:o)

Lonely?

Alone.  Bored.  Nothing to do.  How do you pass the time?  I had to figure that out while Lindsay was in Seattle.  What did I do, you ask?

Had parties.  Slept around.  All the typical things you do when you are all alone and bored, right?  Riiiight.

Honestly, I worked long hours and counted the minutes until I could talk to my girl.  I was a miserable mess without her here.  =o(

I did get to take my first trip to Seattle on Lindsay's birthday.  That was a good time.  Got to mingle with the locals and sample the local culture.  Would definitely go back.

L8R.

I missed you too.

Neglect. That's what I've done to this blog. It is lonely. It never gets any attention from me. I am a bad blogger. My only consolation in this is that it is partially Manda's fault. She's been neglecting the blog too.

What have I been up to? My life is mundane and boring... All bragging aside. I did drive a sweet Ford Focus around Seattle for two weeks. It matched my eyes. It was green.

My age-ometer clicked forward one year. This is the oldest I've ever been. It's new and exciting. And I did get molested by a stranger. A cute, well mannered stranger. Manda was thrilled when I told her. Super thrilled. Thrilled in the way people are when they aren't thrilled at all. :o)

The edge of your seat. That's where you're sitting right now. I'll try not to make you balance there too long.

Be back soon.

Peace Out.
Lindsay
